I read it a little bit closer, because of another person’s comments to me. It appears he did not want to pay the monthly premiums for Obamacare. So he didn’t get coverage because Obamacare was not signed up by him.
It was his other insurance policy that did not cover it!
I read it a bit closer now too. The article dies from vaguery, pronouns, and imprecision.
In that case, I don't understand what his complaint is. He should be a poster boy FOR the ACA if Obamacare would have covered him and his prior policy did not.
